SCEPTRE 1985 Volume St. Mary High School South Amboy, N. J. 08879 A Winning Tradition Three words, “A Winning Tradi- tion,” say it all about Saint Mary's High School. Founded on the goal of raising mature Christian adults, Saint Mary’s excels in educating the whole person. Since the late 1800’s, Saint Mary’s has built character in its students by enhan- cing their relationship with God, strengthening them physically through outstanding athletic pro- grams, expanding their intellect through challenging academic cur- riculum, and maturing them by pro- viding an atmosphere in which the individual can develop morals, vir- tues and a philosophy to guide them through the rest of their lives. The Saint Mary’s education has become a winning tradition with many families. A large number of students have siblings, parents and grandparents who are Saint Mary’s alumni. The winning tradition is reflected in the success of Saint Mary’s graduates. Many graduates have become doctors, lawyers, bankers, engineers, priests, merchants and teachers. Even more important, however, is the success a Saint Mary’s graduate has in raising a family. At Saint Mary’s, the students learn to love, respect and communicate with one another, which not only makes high school enjoyable, but also sets its students in the winning path towards mean- ingful relationships in the future. The faculty at Saint Msry’s is simply the greatest. They are truly interested in seeing their students become winners. Not only do they provide good academic ex- periences, they provide per- sonalized attention which often proves to be the edge needed for their students’ success. The Saint Mary’s student finds that he or she is an integral part of a group in which, through the in- teraction of its’ members, each stu- dent becomes a winner. So, with future’s doorstep at our feet, we the class of 1985 are proud to have been part of “The Winning Tradition.” Table of Contents Introduction 2 Spring ’84 17 Sports 33 Student Life 57 Academics 91 Underclass 105 Seniors 129 Closing 168 Introduction ABOVE — Regina Molloy takes action when her iced tea springs a leak.

Winning quite often is said to be done only by sports teams or candidates in elections. The mean- ing of winning goes much deeper than that. We all win; not everyone in the same way. We have worked hard and have succeeded but have not necessarily been called “win- ners.” Everyone receives a Catholic education which is a big plus and makes us all winners. We should take pride in ourselves as winners, whether it be in academics in sports or in personal goals. The Upper Hand An important aspect of our education at St. Mary’s is the positive influence of a parochial school atmosphere. We are receiv- ing not only a good education but also Christian principles which are instilled in each and every one of us. The priests, sisters, and teaching staff guide us towards the ultimate goal of academic ex- cellence coupled with high Chris- tian ideals. ABOVE — Msgr. Gerety and Fr.

Introduction 7 Making the Grade Academics — the focal point of the educational experience here at St. Mary’s. A tradition of excellence second to none. The learning environment in our school is one that must be ex- perienced first-hand to be fully ap- preciated. Through diversified sub- ject matter from “Foods of the World” to Physics and small pupil to teacher ratios, a student has a grand opportunity to grow intellec- tually. Each of the courses offers a chance for the pupil to become familiar with an instructor and his or her own insights and acquired knowledge of the topic at hand. Much more can be grasped by all in this manner than could ever be learned as “just a number” in a large institution. But the most important academic benefit that our school has to offer, the one that draws the line between ourselves and other facilities, is the instruction of the life of Christ. Through a Catholic education — classes in morality, Christian ideals, etc., the student is exposed to a way of life superior to the com- mon mode of thought. Christian ideals and high standards — chari- ty, compassion, and understanding — are instilled in every one of us. This, along with the family environ- ment of St. Mary’s, makes our school the right place where your full potential as a well-rounded per- son can be realized.

Saint Mary’s pursues many avenues towards this instillment; one of its most prominent methods is through its athletic program. The athletic program at Saint Mary’s is open to the entire student body and it encourages active par- ticipation by all students. The choice of activities is vast: soccer, cross-country, tennis, gymnastics, basketball, wrestling, baseball, softball, and the list is expanding. Our teams’ achievements are evi- dent to anyone who enters our gym. Hanging from its ceiling are many championship banners in testimony to the excellence of our teams’ performances. Enthusiasm is not lacking by any means on the part of our players. The support given to our teams by the student body has been outstanding. Teamwork is the greatest asset shared by our athletic teams. Each player goes onto the field with a job to do. When our teams win, each player shares in the victory because each knows that he or she contributed by successfully doing his or her part. While it feels good to finish the season with a championship title, it is equally satisfying to know that fairplay, sportsmanship, teamwork, and Christian perspective went into the attempt. That’s what the Saint Mary’s athletic program is all about.

Introduction 11 After the Bell Rings The other side of Saint Mary's, the side which occurs after the bell rings, when class is finished, when the books are in the locker, makes student life at St. Mary’s very entertaining. Students take part in a wide range of extracurricular activities, Language Societies, Game Clubs, Olympics of the Mind and many others. Some students head to their athletic practices or to cheer the Eagles on at a home game. Throughout the year, St. Mary’s holds various affairs at night — from the many movie nights to the seasonal dances. Not only are these functions enjoyable, they provide memories which can last a lifetime. Assemblies are an important event at St. Mary’s. They are a time for spirit. They bring out our win- ning spirit, our class spirit, and our school spirit. The thrill of competi- tion can be felt in the air, at the Senior Faculty Volleyball game, the Ping Pong Finals and the Battle Between Classes. Probably the most meaningful of the events at Saint Mary’s are the Retreats. The Retreats combine fun, fellowship and faith together to provide a fulfilling experience to everyone who participates. At these retreats, we always learn a little bit more about who we are and who our friends are and we strengthen our relationships with God. When we finally go home, Ma Bell is at her busiest. Most of us pick up the phone and spend hours getting the story straight, learning who’s going out with whom, what the plans for the evening are, or what that English assignment was. When the calendar says Friday, excitement fills the halls. Plans are finalized for the weekend’s festivities, the concerts, the parties, the movies, the games or the countless other ways we find to spend our weekends. When the bell rings Monday morning, out come the books again; but we can look back on the weekend and the after-school events; we can look forward to an equally enjoyable week ahead. 12 Introduction OPPOSITE PAGE TOP — It dawns on Kim Soden that it is almost 2:18 BOTTOM LEFT — Gail Devine autographs the tree as Judy Slee enjoys her lunch.

It is an even better feeling to call those faces by name because they are your friends. In St. Mary’s, friends live up to certain standards. A friend is always willing to greet you with a smile on a dreary Monday morning when you need it the most or to pat you on the back after you failed the test you studied for until two a.m. the night before. A true friend also possesses qualities such as honesty, respect, and loyalty. These moral ex cellences are the building blocks of lasting friendships. The friendships we have nurtured will prove to be a source of fond memories of St. Mary’s. TOP — Thank� for listening — even when I'm saying nothing at alii . . Tina Prlccaciante and Jodi Yunckes.

SPRING ’84 Broadway Dreamers Every year the actors of S.M.H.S. gather together to display their talents. They work many long hours to put together an off-Broadway presentation. Last March the show performed was “Broadway Dreamers. All the actors portrayed everyday people on a busy New York City street — venders, businessmen, singers and dancers. In the story, all the characters shared one dream — to become a star on Broadway, and when they entered this new dream world they all became professional singers and dancers in a world famous company. Some of the cast members were Jerry Doherty, Mary Jean Johnson, Tracey Tice, Josephine ladevaia, and Beth Vollmann. “Under the direction of Adele Monjoi,” says one cast member, “we all put our best foot forward.” Everyone in- volved including the stage crew had a great time working together to make the play a huge success. 18 School Play ABOVE — Josephine ladevaia, Tracey Tice and Mike Santangelo back up Jerry Doherty's rendition ot Elvis Presley.

Tony DiMarzio, Dave LaBue, George Petzold, Kevin Quinn The 1984 Olympics of The Mind World Finals had 416 teams from all over the country and Canada com- peting at the University of Akron in Ohio over a three day period. Our team from Saint Mary’s, by virtue of their victories on the local league, regional, and state levels, earned the right to participate in the Mousemobile Relay, Division III, of the World Finals, coming up against 31 other teams. Representing the state of New Jersey: David La Bue, John Saba, Anthony Di Marzio, Kevin Quinn, and George Petzold raced their mousetrap-powered vehicles with speed and style doing themselves — and — us proud.

The whole Junior Class and faculty were invited to dress up for the occas- sion. There was a lot of digging through old clothes and calling people to borrow saddle shoes or to see what to use to grease back hair. As one Junior Randy Wilson said, “It was a groovy day; our class looked hip.” A large percentage of the class participated. There was a luncheon for the class at St. Pat’s Hall where everyone enjoyed good food and music from the 50’s. 50's Day was very enjoyable and surely will be one of next year’s activities.

This event unites the four classes in the heat of competition. Hosted by Paul Mazzella, sponsored by the freshman class, the Family Feud has proven to be very successful. The first event was won by the freshmen who defeated the sophomores. Afterward, the seniors went on to defeat the juniors, ad- vancing to the finals. The crux of the competition, the big match between the two winning classes, held everyone spell-bound, all were in awe wondering, “Could the seniors hold the lead or would the freshmen steal the show?” The suspense was finally broken through a dazzling display of team work sending the seniors to victory giving them the prestige of being “The finest in the school.” ABOVE — The Freshman Family of Trish Radwanski.

Family Feud 21 Twomey’s Spring Classic This year’s Ping Pong Tourna- ment proved to be an exciting event that resulted in many close match- es. The tournament, started by Mr. Twomey nine years ago, attracted nearly fifty students and faculty to the competition. The final matches were held in the gym before the junior class as Mark Daskiewicz edged Beth Sharkey in three tough sets to win the consolation match. In the championship match Randy Wilson proved too tough for Mr. “Tank” Tice as he captured first place. The four top finishers will be added to the ping pong banner that will be permanently on display in the school. ST.MARY’S HIGH SCHOOL PING PONG TOURNEY THE TWOMEY spring classic: -ten.

Coach Mr. Ryan said that the team displayed ex- cellent sportsmanship as well as a drive to do their best for St. Mary’s. He also added that each individual retained their winning spirit throughout the season. With outstanding efforts made by first singles player and M.V.P. Steve Martin, along with second singles, Kevin O’Neill, and third singles, Sean McCarthy, the team had a determined singles line-up. School spirit was also obvious in the double’s teams. Kevin Byrne and Paul Mazzella never gave up, even when things were not going well. This quality was equally present in all other members of the team, including second doubles, Pete Wagner and Tom McDow. Even though this was the usual lineup, there were often position changes between talented members, John Noble and Mike McDonald. Back — Coach Mr. Ryan. Kevin O'Neill, Sean McCarthy, Steve Martin.

Sophomores Dave Ken- nedy and Rich Fleming were suc- cessful hitters who scored many runs for the team. Coach Bill Urban- ski said that the team had some very strong players and next year would prove to be an even better season. 24 Boys J.V.

RIGHT — Slugger Joe Blaha belts another homerun BELOW — Matt Blaha swings full force at another fast ball. The 1984 Varsity Baseball Team was one of great talent and power. They were lead by Coach John Morvey, whose unpredictable style of play kept teams off balance all year. Captains Chris Pelletier, Jeff Pacansky and Mark Daskiewicz brought the team through a rough beginning with their talent and ex- perience. Ace Chris Pelletier took charge on the mound leading the Eagle’s Varsity to their first win. Mark Daskiewicz’s golden glove play and blazing fastball retired many opponents. Jeff Pacansky held down third base making levitating plays and getting crucial outs. The Blaha Brothers made it a family affair to drive in runs. Junior Joe Blaha, the team’s Homerun Leader was able to hit in runs the Eagles needed. Sophomore Matt Blaha played like a veteran, from getting basehits to tracking down long fly balls. The Eagles show a promise for next year with returning varsity members Bill O’Leary, Randy Wilson, Tom Mierzwiak, Bobby Bialoblocki and Jim Vellanti. The 1984 Season was one of learning and experimenting. When the 1985 Boys Varsity Baseball Team takes over next year, they just may bring home a banner.

This group of girls joined together to become one of the finest teams in Middlesex County. The girls were led by Sophomore Bernadette Wykpisz. Her quickness and good glove saved many runs and kept the E.R.A.’s to a minimum. Pitchers Debbie Kelton, Karen Simonetti, Michelle Bialoblocki, and Diane Poretti also showed their pitching effort throughout the season. The outfield was patrolled by Kathy Hurley, Chris Cartwright, and Trish Radwanski who displayed great fielding. Sophomore signal caller was Karen Scupp who directed the infield. The girls gained a lot of ex- perience this season so they will be qualified to take over on varsity where many seniors left off. BACK — Coach Lori Feldman. Chris Cartwright. June O'Leary.

The team was led by junior captain Eleanor Wykpisz who was voted first team All-Conference and second team All-County. Janice Reilly, a fine out- fielder and lead off batter, was also voted first team All-Conference. Making the second team All- Conference were sophomores Jean O'Toole (pitcher), and Kim Walker (3rd base); and senior, Jeanne Rad- wanski (outfield). With the majority of players being undergraduates, Coach Nick Russo anticipates a strong '85 season since all players will be returning. BACK — Coach Nick Russo. Jeanne Radwanski, Kirsten Conroy.

Winning Athletes The annual Eagles Sports Ban- quet was held at Buck Smith’s in Keansburg. It brought together athletes, coaches, and parents for a night of reminiscence and ap- preciation. Every athlete who par- ticipated on a sport at St. Mary’s during the school year was presented with a plaque in recogni- tion of his her achievements. M.V.P.’s and Coaches Awards were given out to outstanding players in each sport, and shirts were presented to all senior athletes. Jackets were also distributed to all coaches in appreciation of their hard work, patience and dedica- tion. One highlight of the evening was Mr. Tice’s slide show which featured both athletes and coaches in a variety of candid situations. The banquet proved to be an en- joyable conclusion to a very memorable year of sporting competition. “A Night at the Beach” ABOVE — Sophomore� : Bill Blanken, Bob Waltz, Kim Walker, Karen Scupp, Cathy Traina, Ken Mayers and Lisa Harrigan catch up on the latest gossip at the dance. June 8, 1984 was the date of the 2nd Annual Last Chance Dance. A “Salute to the Jersey Shore” was the theme of the dance. Because of the “beachy” atmosphere, and the festive mood that was present, this function was a big hit. The majority of the student body participated in this event. As one student said, “As I approached the school from Stevens Avenue, all I could see was a sea of white pants and Hawaiian shirts swaying to the music.” The most requested songs were from The Beach Boys, and when “Surfin’ U.S.A.” roared through the cafeteria, there wasn't one person not dancing. All in all the Last Chance Dance was a great way of saying goodbye to school and hello to summer. Last Chance Dance 29 May 24, 1984 was the date the Senior Senate had reserved for one of the most important events of their senior year. The gathering place for that night was the Shore Casino in the Atlantic Highlands, where everyone was to come in for- mal attire. This event was none other than the class of 1984’s Senior Prom. Playing everyone’s favorites that night was the local band Messenger. They began the night at eight o’clock and continued playing till one the next morning. Also shar- ing their musical talents that night were Cindy Wood and Bob Ferraro who gave us his rendition of Elvis Presley. In addition to the music and dancing the food was delicious. This was about the only thing that kept the seniors from dancing. (Even though most continued to dance by their tables.) Before long the night came to an end. The music stopped, the hall came to a dull roar, and all gathered momentoes and keepsakes. The theme, “We’ve Got Tonight” was perfect for the occasion because it was a night all will always remember.

Although the skies threatened rain, the procession from the school to the church was flowing and orderly. Inside parents proudly awaited the graduates. Father Vaughn delivered an inspiring sermon about decision making and thoughts of past ex- periences. A reception in the gym capped off a wonderful evening.

A sunny day greeted St. Mary’s graduates, faculty, and parents as Mr. Twomey, the class moderator, led the long procession from the school entrance to the gym. The Diocese of Metuchen was represented by Brother James Malone, Superintendent of Schools. Steven Tranotti a former science teacher, gave some very practical advice as the main speaker. After Mary Pat Burke, class president, in- structed all to turn their tassels, the seniors were off to face the future with a foundation built at St. Mary’s.

The girls wound up one game over 500 and made their presence felt in Middlesex County. In the county tournament, Mo Fallon, the first singles player, placed third. The second doubles combo also placed third. In the state tournament the team reached the second round. This year brought the end of the long Fallon reign. This reign started seven years ago with Mo’s sister Eileen. The second singles position was held by Beth Sharkey. Beth’s patient baseline game often rattled the opponent. The third singles player was Lynn Kiicooley who was quite impressive and helped the team out a lot. First doubles were Lynn Paczkowski and Linda Bravo. This combination was the liveliest of them all. With Linda’s baseline play and Lynn’s play at net, these two were very hard to beat. The second doubles were Veronica Wykpisz and Kim Bartkowicz. This team came from being an unknown to a feared power in the county. ABOVE - BOTTOM ROW — Lynn Paczkowski, Michelle Comunale, Mo Fallon (captain). Kim Bartkowicz, Beth Sharkey.

This 1984 season promised to be exciting, and it was just that. After six games the team was 2-4, and showing no signs of improvement. Coach Duh made a few changes in the lines and the seniors began to show their leadership and abilities. Over the next four games, they went 3-1, and qualified for the state tournament for the fourth year in a row. One major factor for the team’s turn around was the play of rookie goalie, Bill O’Leary. With clear thinking and quick reactions, Bill had many saves at the net. This in- spired the front line to work even harder, and the goals began to pile up. The most goals were scored by senior Al Pinho and junior Ken Mayers. The defense was led by seniors Ted Douglas and Jim Vellanti.

An underclassman-dominating team this year, the Girls Soccer Team is one with many talented players. With just a handful of veterans, first year coach Paulette Mayers was looking forward to the Eagle’s most successful campaign ever. The improvement in the ladies may not show on their 3-8-1 record, but it is there. The team was led by senior goalie, Teri O’Brien and halfback Regina Raczkowski. Both girls have been on the team since their freshman year. The team was then led by a flood of underclassmen. One pleasant surprise was the playing ability of sophomore Tisha Loftus. Tisha broke the school record for the most points in a season by a sophomore. She was so quick with a soccer ball that it looked as if her defenders were standing still as she drove by them. Other im- pressive starters were Jo Brady and Rosie Murphy. In looking ahead to next year, it is probable that the girls will have an extremely successful season on the playing field. 38 Girls Soccer LEFT — Under Coach Mayers' direction the Grirls team was led to their best season ever.

Girls Soccer 39 Gymnastics Team Rises to New Heights The 1984 Gymnastics Team had an overall hard-working season. The team was coached by Cathy Redling. Leading the team in vaulting was Captain Kim Quirk, who received a high score of 7.6 out of a possible 10. Besides her leader- ship in vaulting, Kim also had an outstanding routine on the uneven bars. The balance beam was con- trolled by junior Bernadette Wykpisz and senior Regina Molloy. Marybeth Babecki, also a captain, really showed outstanding ability. She held her own during her breath-taking floor routine. Marybeth combined her tumbling stunts with her dance routine. Her high score was a 7.9 Although gymnastics is being dropped from the sports program next season, we hope that those with the talent will continue their interest in the sport.

Senior Bob Bialoblocki said, “Cross Country isn’t a boring sport like most think it is,” and they prov- ed just that, by breaking many school records this year. Randy Wilson broke the school’s home course record previously set by John Bayers two years ago. He beat the old time by ten seconds. Other records were set by Kevin Byrne, who broke the sophomore record, and Pete McCarthy, who broke the freshman record. The team’s top five runners were Randy Wilson, Dave Kennedy, Kevin Byrne, Rich Fleming, and Scott Lambertson. Adding to the excitement of breaking records, the team cap- tured the Central Valley Con- ference Championship for the first time in the school’s history. Helping them to achieve this victory was first year coach Ed Twomey. Mr. Twomey commented that “since most of this year’s runners are underclassmen, I am very much looking forward to an even more successful season next year.” TOP ROW — Rich Fleming, Dave Kennedy, Kevin Byrne.

Team Strives for Success Girl’s Cross Country had a fine season by placing third in the Cen- tral Valley Conference. The team was led by senior Janice Reilly who completed her fourth year of being a member of the team. Her leader- ship was respected by all the other runners who will be returning next year without her. Sophomore starters were Colleen McCarthy and Jeanne Bayers. Freshman starters were Dawn Castellano and Jennifer Noble. This year should be looked at as a “building” year. With the majority of its members being underclassmen, next years Girl’s Team should be a strong, disci- plined and well rounded squad which should have nothing less than a winning season.

The Boys Varsity Basketball team, under Coach Pritchard and Nick Russo, had a very successful 15-6 record. Leading the way for the Eagles were seniors Joe Byrne and Randy Wilson. 6'4 Joe Byrne, seventh leading scorer in Mid- dlesex County, had a fine shot and superb rebounding skills. Point guard Randy Wilson, just behind Joe in scoring contributed a nice outside shot and was unbeatable in a pressure situation, usually com- ing up with a steal. Also ranked in Middlesex County, at one point ninth, Randy was one of seven boys in the entire county to have double-digit scoring in every game since the beginning of the season. Other starters Bill O’Leary and Tom Mierzwiak helped out with the re- bounding and fine shooting. Junior Dave Kennedy was tough and ag- gressive on defense. Seniors Bob Bialoblocki and Jim Vellanti always came through with aggressive ball-playing when needed. Rounding out the squad for the Eagles was junior Bob Waltz and sophomores Kevin Byrne, Nick Fer- raro, and Bill Reilly. Although the team was composed mainly of seniors, next year looks promising for the Eagles. 44 Soys Varsity Basketball ... Soars to State Competition SMHS BOYS VARSITY B.B.

Boys Basketball 45 So Close, Yet So Very Far The 1984-85 Girls Basketball season was one ot rebuilding due to the loss of three senior starters last year. The catalyst of this year’s team was senior Captain Eleanor Wykpisz. Another sparkplug of the girls’ attack was Marlene Wisniewski. She was the leaper ot the team averaging nearly 10 re- bounds per game. The only other senior on the team was sharp- shooting Karen Charmello. The leadership of these three seniors showed in the second half of the season when the girls went on an 11-3 tear. The other three starters were June O’Leary, Trish Radwan- ski, and Jill Carew. Two impressive freshmen were Michelle Mancuso and Jennifer No- ble. These two prove that St. Mary’s has a bright future ahead in Girls Basketball. ABOVE — Jill Carew does her usual thing.

They had everything needed to pull a squad of sixteen girls together off the floor and on. So much enthusiasm made them stand out above all the other teams’ cheerleaders on the season’s schedule. “It’s so hard to get precision in your cheers when there are so many girls. That should have been a factor that would have been against us, but we had one thing going for us — perfection. It was unanimous that we wanted it, so we had to work hard to get it.” All of their hard work paid off with one added surprise — a pom- pom routine to “Baby I’m a Star” by Prince. A new addition to the usual cheers at games, it added flair and style to half-time. One cheerleader commented, “I’ll never forget how hard it was putting it together. Our time was so limited that we even worked on the routine in school and at each others’ houses to get it done in time for the pep-rally.” The pep-rally was a huge success due to the cheerleaders’ hard work. From making banners and posters, to keeping everything under con- trol, the cheerleaders did it all. The best thing about the cheerleaders was their devotion to the players. “When the team lost, we felt just as bad as they did,” added a junior member. “We really cared about those guys. Even when they did lose, we still did the cheer, ‘We Are Proud Of You’ because that’s how we felt.” 1985 Eagles Cheerleaders, we’re all proud of your job, tool We’re a Little Bit Better... The Boys J.V. Basketball team enjoyed a fine season. With the leadership of 3 juniors. Rich Flem- ing, John Hensberger, and Matt Blaha, the underclassmen gained valuable experience and will have many fine memories. All the boys played equal time because their type of play blended in well together. The workhorse of this team was Frank Paczkowski. His speed and his knowledge of the court enabled him to come through with key steals. Another deter- mined youngster is Tim Sullivan. He has worked on his game and has improved tremendously over the past year. Other players who aided in this winning season were Mike Dietrich, Tim Keevins, and Peter Yuen. The boys entered a J.V. tourna- ment. In the opening round, they beat Madison Central but lost to a tough East Brunswick squad in the next round. All in all, the boys were tough and they should be ready when they get their call to Varsity. BOYS J.V.B.B.

Returning players Tisha Loftus and Sandy Korkowski pro- vided much of the rebounding. Juniors Karen Scupp and Lisa Har- rigan, who are both Varsity players, combined to produce strong drib- bling skills and good shots. Freshman guard Jodi Yunkus has contributed to the team’s success through her excellent ball handling, aggressiveness and hustle. Team- mates Kirsten Conroy, and Chris Cartwright have developed into fine players. Freshman newcomers LeeAnn Durski and Heather Pinski were also strong players.

Varsity Wrestling 55 56 Candids STUDENT LITE Friday Night Fever The Fall Ball was our first dance of the year. For the freshmen this was their first exposure to a “real high school dance.” For the seniors this was the last fall dance that they would attend together as a class. For everyone, the Fall Ball was a lot of fun. Like the Last Chance Dance at the end of the year, the Fall Ball always draws a large crowd. This year over three hundred students were in attendance. The Fall Ball was a night of music, dance, and (for some) romance. It was an op- portunity to get together with all of your friends and the faculty outside of the normal school routine. In ad- dition to being a great fund raiser for the senior class, the Fall Ball was an enjoyable night for all. The seniors, as expected, set the pace for the rest of the people at- tending this dance. Following their lead, the other students joined together for an evening of fun and frolic. “Struttin’ their stuff” on the dance floor, the seniors were a tough act to follow. Their moves were hard to beat. Our juniors came in a very close second! From “break dancing” to the “slow ones” everyone took part and had an ex- ceptional evening. The Fall Ball was a big hit.

The Freshman Retreat gave the students the opportunity to accomplish this goal. The students assembled in the gym, breaking up into groups of ten with a teacher as their moderator. The day’s activities included a movie, and various exercises, one which included a scavenger hunt of fellow classmates’ personal characteristics. Freshman Debbie Zielinski commented, “I learned new things about some of my friends, and even made some new ones. I’m looking forward to the next retreat.” Donna Housman recalled, “It was a good experience meeting new people. I liked it very much.” Tracey Babecki seemed to sum up the experience of retreat best by saying, “I’m looking for- ward to learning more about myself, God, and others on retreats in the future.” ABOVE LEFT — Closeness between Mrs. Reed and the freshmen is important.

The day was filled with various activities which made the day a big success. In the morning, the P.T.A. ar- ranged a breakfast for the students in the foyer of the Little Theatre. There, all the participants met and prepared for the ceremony they had been waiting for. From there, the Juniors proceed- ed over to the church for Ring Day mass. The celebrant, Monsignor Gerety, spoke of the deep sym- bolism and tradition of the ring dur- ing the homily. He said the ring is not only another piece of jewelry, but it is also a sign of faith, a sign of our youth, and a symbol of the Juniors hopes for a peaceful future. After the blessing of the rings, the ceremony continued in the Lit- tle Theatre. The guest speaker, Mrs. Janet Scordinsky, emphasized the “Reaching For Tomorrow” aspect of Ring Day. Mrs. Scordinsky stated that the class ring and the marriage ring would be two of the most im- portant symbols in the lives of the Juniors. She reminded them to always remember the meanings behind them. The day was concluded with a luncheon sponsored by the Sophomores in St. Pat’s hall. Here, the traditional “turning of the ring” began for the Juniors. In all, the day was one to remember. TOP — The blessed rings which will soon be put on the fingers of the Juniors. BOTTOM — A. J.

The bus brought the seniors there about 2:00 p.m., Oc- tober 30,1984. The three days were an experience that will always be remembered. From the affirmation exercise to the letters, every mo- ment of the retreat will be treasured. Who will forget Mr. Yusko’s early morning Evangelistic sessions of “the devil on the hill”; or Joe Blaha’s late afternoon swim in the lake; or the flies in the windows and rooms; the community showers; “Slow Me Down, Lord”; the friend- ships made and mended; Michelle’s “now is this what we are here for”; the pretzel wars; the “forbidden driveway”; the tears that were shed, or will anyone forget how everyone cuddled closely, especial- ly on the second night; or the nice things said about each other; the football games; the sleeping ar- rangements; the “special” Mass by the fireplace or how no one wanted to leave? The retreat seemed almost unbearable at first with no heat or mirrors and the presence of too many bugs, but all thirty-two of us, including Mr. Ryan, Mr. Yusko, Mrs. Polinski and Fr. Bob seemed to sur- vive and would repeat the ex- perience if given the chance again. The Senior Retreat may very well be the single most important ex- perience at Saint Mary’s. This one was held at Kirkridge, PA. It was designed to enlighten students to the true meaning of God in their lives, to learn more about themselves and each other. Dave Skarzynski was quoted, “I really liked the retreat and I found out a lot about myself and other people. It was a great experience and I urge all underclassmen to make sure they go on Senior Retreat.” Jennifer Coe said, “I really got a lot out of it, I got close to people I didn’t know before and I will never forget the 1985 Senior Retreat!” The retreat was organized into groups which went to various retreat sites. The quiet, natural landscapes make them ideal loca- tions, as Judi Slee put it, “The scenery at Kirkridge added a lot to the meaning of what Senior Retreat was really like.” On the retreat, the students take part in activities that are fun, mean- ingful, and emotional. Greg Pompliano said, “The retreat really meant a lot to me. I built on good friendships and started new ones, I don’t think I’ll ever forget it.” To sum it all up, “EVERYONE SHOULD GO!” The Lebanon Retreat of November 15-17 will last in the minds of its participants as a time when each individual was truly called upon to consider “What I Did for Love.” Through the Name Exer- cise and Life Journey we were first given the opportunity to “Slow Down.” But these exercises were only the beginning of our challenge to share with others. It was the Affirmation Exercise that allowed us to feel the touch of the Holy Spirit which opened our hearts to each other. Few of us suspected before the retreat how deeply we felt about each other, and fewer yet suspected that, not only could we express it, but that we’d also be moved to tears of hap- piness. The Affirmation Exercise drew us together and made us one. We never know when our time here on earth is over. The news of Tony’s death struck us all with the terrible reality of our own finiteness. Together we prayed and cried. We realized even then the im- portance of sharing God’s love always — for we never know the time or hour. Our retreat will always hold the bittersweet memory of love found and love lost. LEFT — “We caught you Mr. Tice sneaking around to get the exercises ready for the day.

BELOW — But we don’t want to leave yet! 64 Senior Retreat Can the words “unity” and “in- dividuality” pertain to the same group of people, at the same time? The Senior Class, through their ex- periences on retreat, found that they not only can but do, when join- ed together by the word “relationship.” The Senior Retreat at Aldersgate, in northwest N.J., will be remembered by all as one of the most loving and moving ex- periences of senior year. It is hard to relate the experience of love, trust, sharing and openness to those who were not there. New friends were made, and old friends were remade, teachers became better understood, and many of the masks people wear, and images people build for themselves were discarded, so others could see us as we are. Our parents were also a part of retreat, as they shared their deep love with us. Mass took on a new meaning as it brought the night to a close. Our relationship with each other, our family, and God had pro- bably never been more intensely felt. There were fun parts to retreat too. Who could forget the delicious food, or having to wait on each other at the table. “Shaving cream” and “toothpate” became words that took on whole new meanings. Who could forget the sing-along of play tunes, the spitting fireplace, or trust walks in the woods? Each retreat is unique in and of itself. And in this sense the Alder- sgate retreat was like every other. But this experience had an added dimension. We learned of the death of one of our senior classmates, Tony DiMarzio, while on retreat. While it certainly was an unex- pected and tragic event, it gave an added depth and unity to those pre- sent, who not only shared happy times, but now shared in the ex- perience of having to comfort one another in a time of deep sorrow. We came back, with not only a clearer view of ourselves, our parents, our peers, and our teachers, but also with a clearer view of God and how He is present in a special way in each one of us. Senior Retreat 65 A Senior Tradition A highlight of the Senior Theology course is the simulated marriage which takes place in the Spring. The whole simulated marriage course is undertaken in order to prepare the seniors for a vocation which most will enter into in later life. Too often marriage and par- enthood are assumed with little or no knowledge. The course deals not only with the practical aspects of engagement, marriage and parenthood but also with the deeper aspects such as values, in- terests, communication and faith. Preparation begins in second semester with the selection of a future mate. Since the ratio of Senior girls to Senior boys is not equal, all girls do not marry which really places pressure on all Seniors. RIGHT — “Will you marry mo?” John Saba says to Zofia Milkowski. Announcements of engagements come daily until a final predeter- mined date. Then begins the fun part — trips to the stores to check bridal registry items, selecting a ring, writing announcements, preparing a ceremony. In addition to all the individual couple's work, the class’s work on a simulated marriage ceremony and reception must be given time. Just like “real life,” the marriage has only begun with the ceremony and class work continues with time spent on building ways of better communication and problem solv- ing. Real life situations are presented and discussed. Ultimate- ly all seniors can come to agree that “To make a marriage work, you have to work at marriage.” BELOW — The ones who have helped us throughout this marriage. Mr. Tice and Mrs. Tighe.

Preparations for this dance began as early as November. Students swamped the department stores looking for the perfect outfit for the occasion. When the final week before the gala arrived, the flowers were ordered and the final arrangements were made regarding transportation. A festive time was had by all. Surprisingly the food was almost as good as the music and the Vienese Dessert Table was superb, except to those who were counting calories. Watching Bill O’Leary and Joe Byrne dance to Bruce Springs- teen’s version of “Santa Claus Is Coming To Town” made the night all the more enjoyable. When the evening came to a close, we departed from the Dorian Manor and kept fond memories in mind. LEFT AND RIGHT — Couples dancing the night away. BOTTOM LEFT — It's up to you. New York. New York!

Merry Christmas “Class of 85” Surprising to many was the suc- cess of the Senior Christmas Party held in St. Pat’s Hall. Many seniors had fun trimming the Christmas Tree, (even though it did look a bit unusual). They feasted on a varied assortment of “munchies” and listened to the stereo or watched T.V. Of course, they were watching “A Christmas Carol.” Everyone had a good time that night and left with both their Christmas and class spirits inflated.

Starting it off with senior Marybeth Babecki singing our National Anthem, the program took off like a rocket. Then the Var- sity and J.V. cheerleaders took to the court for some opening cheers. School spirit built up as the names of the fall and winter athletes were introduced. The highlight of the afternoon came when the Varsity cheerleaders thrilled the crowd with a fantastic pom-pom routine. Concluding the Pep Rally was the spirit contest: which class could cheer the loudest? With the help of the cheerleaders, each class tried to outshout the others. Waving “spirit hands” and screaming deafeningly, the senior class notched top honors. As the student body left the auditorium it still bub- bled with spirit. Undoubtedly, St. Mary’s beat Hof- fman with the help of its en- thusiastic and supportive fans. TOP — Mr. Erb, Doreen, and Jill watching the excitement ot the pep rally. ABOVE LEFT — Mr� . Panigrotso going all out with school spirit.

Helium balloons, giant hearts, and streamers of pink and white transformed the cafeteria into a mystical palace. At 10:00 p.m. it was announced that Tracey Tice was voted queen by the Senior class. Bernadette Hammond, Kathy Slee, and Jennifer Noble were voted members of her court by their classes. The music and good food were enjoyed by all and cupid came and left his mark on everyone. The dance was run exceptionally well and we look forward to other Freshman activities. ABOVE — Senior class Queen, Tracey Tice, and her court: Junior. Bernadette Ham- mond, Sophomore.

Students filled out question- naires and had the results tabulated by Computer Fun Corp. of Marysville, Ohio. The computer came up with a list of eight names of the people of the opposite sex who answered the most questions in the same manner. These names were arranged from the most to least compatible. Then the lists were kept secret and the Sophomore Class revealed them to the waiting school on Valentine’s Day (oh, there was a catch of course — it cost $1.00 to see your list). They were the talk of the school! Do you remember who was number 1 on your list? TOP — Junior Compatible Couple — Maryann Wehrle and Mike McDonald. TOP LEFT — Mike Molloy goes tor the older woman.

Computer Dating 75 126 Days ’til Graduation Every year, each Senior looks for- ward to the end of his her Senior year. The midpoint of this anticipa- tion is appropriately called Senior Halfway Week. Once this week is reached, all Seniors realize that they are half through with their Senior Year. This year the week started on Monday January 28 and ended Friday February 1. To start the week off, the entire Senior hallway along with the Senior lounge was decorated with crepe paper and balloons. This was to remind all Seniors that only five months were left of High School. The Senior lounge was definitely the main attraction. Covering an entire section of glass, was a Senior Graffiti mural. All Seniors were in- vited to write down their “own thing” on this paper. After collect- ing graffiti for two days the mural was taken down and saved for post graduation activities. After taking down the graffiti, many Senior can- dids were displayed in the lounge to remind everyone of the months and years already gone by. Also, during Senior Halfway Week, Senior T-Shirts were ordered for the Class of ’85. Halfway through the week, cupcakes were offered to all Seniors. For some it was depress- ing to realize they were halfway through, but for most, they were ex- cited and started counting down the days until June 2nd. TOP RIGHT — “We’re surprised to see you in the senior lounge. Howard.’ ABOVE — “We're going to miss everyone. RIGHT — Just a few of the seniors contemplating how the next half of the year will be FAR RIGHT — Don’t worry Carlos, it's almost over.’ 76 Half-Way Week True Winners If you have the qualities of character, leadership, scholarship, and service you may be eligible for in- duction into the National Honor Socie- ty. Each year, a review board com- posed of faculty members decides which students have earned entrance to this prestigious organization. The review board also re-evaluates incum- bent members to determine if they have upheld the standards of the society. In order to be eligible for the Honor Society, a student must meet the above qualities, maintain A-B average and participate in a variety of extra-curricular activities. The St. Mary’s chapter of the Na- tional Honor Society is run by three elected officers: President, Vice Presi- dent, and Treasurer, with assistance from their moderator, Mrs. Pothoff. All members are encouraged to actively participate at the meetings, and all decisions are voted on in a democratic manner. The National Honor Society oversees various pro- grams for the benefit of the school. These include a Tutorial Program, a fund raiser for the Gifted and Talented Program, and an open house for prospective students and their parents. It is very flattering to be in- stated into the National Honor Socie- ty, and all members strive to prove themselves worthy of this distinction. TOP LEFT — Members of the National Honor Society.

Among the Senior Senate members are: Sean Curtis (Pres.), Jay Mazzella (Vice Pres.), Kim Quirk (Sec.), Jennifer Coe, Beth Sharkey, Randy Wilson and Joe Byrne. To start the year off, the Senior Senate sponsers the first dance which is always a big success. The Senate also is in charge of the 20 20 club, the Prom preparations, money raising events and other school ac- tivities. The Senior Senate members often spend many long hours after school and during their vacation time to organize many fun events for the Senior class to enjoy. At the top of the heap, the Senior class is led by their moderator Mr. Tice, who is a big help to them. Senior Senate: TOP ROW — Kim Quirk. Beth Sharkey.

The Junior Senate are a group of selected individuals who plan ac- tivities for their class, have fund- raising events and also run school dances. This year’s Christmas Ball Dance was sponsored by the Junior Senate at the Dorian Manor; it not only proved to be a huge success, but also a very glittering evening. The Junior Senate members are: Valerie Coe, Jamie Diem, Robert Waltz, Sean McCarthy, Dawn Hor- nick, Thomas SanFilippo and Dave Kennedy. Without their moderator, Mr. Ryan, what would the Junior Senate be? Mr. Ryan is a person they look up to for his useful guidance. In conclusion, Juniors, just remember this, “When in doubt do not pout, the Junior Senate will work things out!” 78 Senates Freshman Senate: TOP — David Nash. BOTTOM ROW — Mark Hammond, Jennifer Noble, Michael Molloy, Peter McCarthy, Beth Ann Fleming, William Boehler. Moderator — Ms. Burns. Senates 79 It is the duty and the responsibili- ty of the Sophomore Senate to govern their class the best way possible. Through this, they, like all the other Senates, sponsor school functions and fund-raising events. For the first time, the Sophomore Senate started a computer dating service which, without a doubt, was very prosperous. The Sophomore Senate consists of Veronica Wykpisz, Kevin Byrne, Paul Mazzella, Colleen McCarthy, Deb- bie Vellanti, Anthony Sarcone and Angela Titollo. And, of course, their hardworking moderator, Mr. John Gloss. A new activity for all Freshmen is the Freshman Senate. The elec- tions are held in November to give the students enough time to get to know their classmates. This year’s Freshman Senate consists of Jen- nifer Noble, Michael Molloy, David Nash, Mark Hammond, Peter Mc- Carthy, Beth Ann Fleming, William Boehler and their moderator Ms. Burns. One of their main activities is the Valentine’s Day Ball, which is always enjoyable. For Freshmen in- volved, this is a good way to show their leadership quality.

Winning Minds The Olympics of the Mind is a creative problem-solving competi- tion. It takes as its model the team competition that one often sees in sports, but employs that model to further the creative and academic capabilities of students. The com- petition is divided into two parts: 1) The spontaneous problem is so named because the students must respond to it spontaneously on the day of the tournament. It is a verbal brain-storming challenge which tests the competitors ability with regard to fluency, flexibility, and originality — three of the four com- ponents of creative thinking. 2) The long-term problem is one on which the students have had several mon- ths to work. Solutions to long-term problems demonstrate successful creative thinking, tenacity, and in- terpersonal cooperation.

It is a collection of students that are gifted in different ways: be it music, writing, or the sciences. Besides in- dividual projects and presenta- tions, the Gifted and Talented, in conjunction with the National Honor Society, runs a lunchtime tutorial service for students. This year several of the program’s members were admitted into Mid- dlesex County College’s Program for the Gifted. The major objective of this organization is to challenge the students to work towards their fullest potential. ABOVE — Working hard on the school newspaper, Tom and Bob are rudely in- terrupted.

Gifted and Talented 81 “EI Club De Espanol” This year the Spanish Club has grown in size. Usually a small group that is unknown in the school, its size has mushroomed to about sixty members. The reason for this greater turn-out for members is its advisor, Sister Esther. Being a teacher for only two years at Saint Mary’s, “Sor” as she is referred to in Spanish, is dearly loved by all of her “estudiantes.” Her quick, energetic manner easily draws students to her attention. This is what makes her club a suc- cess. In this her first year as advisor, she believes in consistent attendance. “Three times you miss, and you’re out!” as Sor would say. There are many differences in the club compared to past years. It has an elevated membership; a trip to a restaurant and the United Nations building in New York is planned, the week of March 4th is language week in which the club will take action in the school. They will do things like say the prayers over the P.A. system in Spanish and cook up Spanish dishes for the club and some members of the faculty. With Sister Esther and her students’ hard work and new ideas, the Spanish club will become a winning tradition at Saint Mary’s. TOP — Members of the Spanish Club: (Pres.) Kim Bartkowicz, (Vice Pres.)

BELOW — French Club members organizing the activities. “Le petit coin de France” is the club’s name. Beth Sharkey was voted this year as its president and Alexandra Surak its secretary. The club meets twice a month, on Tuesday afternoon, after school, in room 205. Madame Bucher is the moderator. The purpose of the club is to add to the students’ knowledge of the country, its inhabitants and their customs. Last year the students studied the important personalities of France. This year they are study- ing the different provinces. Sometimes games are played at the meetings: scrabble, French monopoly, bingo and a French puz- zle of the French map. Some important dates are celebrated with parties like the feast of St. Catherine, patron of the old maids, on November 25; St. Valentine and the Mardi Gras in December. There is also the Chrismas Bazaar at which students’ arts and crafts are sold as well as various cakes and cookies. The French Club is one of the many activities at St. Mary’s in which the students increase their knowledge of the world. Seniors and Juniors who are Library Aides are a big help for the Saint Mary’s librarians. Each stu- dent that is a library aide has an assigned date to help out in the school library. The job consists of putting returned books away in the right place and of keeping track of the ones that are borrowed or taken out for the purpose of studying. This is a good experience for the students to get acquainted with the library and the way it works. Library at Its Best ABOVE — Mrs. Testa would rather be home sleeping.

For its third year as an organization the “Helping Hands’’ are sponsoring an “Anything Goes’’ assembly during Catholic Schools Week, in which all proceeds will go directly to the Propagation of Faith. The members of this group are dedicated to the cause of helping others reach a standard in life we often find easy to maintain. The club is open to students of all levels. Moderator, Miss Nancy Csurbak welcomes any student who wishes to be part of this con- cerned, caring community group. Mission Club 85 A Super Staff A winning tradition of St. Mary’s is its yearbook, the SCEPTRE. Each year the book improves with the hard work and dedication of the SCEPTRE staff. This year, the SCEPTRE staff is a group of about forty students with the majority be- ing Seniors. Most of the student body thinks about the yearbook when payments are due and when they receive it in May. Not many people realize how much work it takes to keep this tradition going. For, in order that the book previews in May, the SCEPTRE staff must work full-time from the end of August to the beginning of March. In September, when most students are getting into the swing of things, the SCEPTRE staff is already working daily after school on the first deadline. This deadline proves to be a learn-while-you- work experience since most of the staff are newcomers. After the fright of making this first deadline, the staff continues on with a newly gained confidence. The deadline in December is completed with ease as each member of the staff strives to create his her particular part of the book. By the January deadline, the SCEPTRE staff strives to remain dedicated in order to complete the last deadline which is due in March. This year, on March fourth a sense of relief and a feeling of hap- piness is evident in the entire staff, especially the editors and the ad- visor. The “work” is now overl However, the yearbook is still on their minds as they await the arrival of the book in May. When the yearbook is distributed in May, every staff member feels a sincere satisfaction in knowing that each contributed in a special way to a tradition which will be cherished by all long after our days at St. Mary’s.

It is an organization of concerned students working to educate fellow students to the hazards of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Their goals are to get the parents more involved and to develop strong student-to-student relationships. They strive to pro- vide help and understanding for people who need it. The growing membership feel that people need to be aware of the problems caused by alcohol and drugs and that peo- ple are concerned and want to help. 88 S.A.D.D. Literary Magazine Reflections, the name of St. Mary’s literary magazine, is an ex- cellent vehicle for students and faculty to publish their work. Although mostly made up of poetry and short stories, the magazine does contain original artwork.

He really became hooked four years ago, when he started working on his father’s truck. Although Bill is too young to work in the pit stop, he assists a race team to prepare their car for them. His greatest thrill came when he put together a motor by himself for the first time. Bill’s future plan is to become a cer- tified mechanic and to someday own his own service station.

Freshman Christopher Roehler has been meeting this challenge as a member of the Hazlet Township Police Explorers. Chris first heard of the Police Ex- plorers through a friend. He has participated in the organization for several months. While Chris hasn’t decided to become a police officer, he still considers the possibility. He regards the experience he will get as an explorer as valuable in any case. These experiences will in- clude directing traffic and accom- panying a police officer on patrol after graduating the academy. Chris notes, “One experience I had was the first time my neighbor saw me getting out of the police car. He stood there looking at me like I was in trouble, so I had to ex- plain it to him.’’ Chris finds the Explorers to be both educational and exciting) But most importantly, he is having fun serving his community. 110 Freshmen Carolyn Rossetti Maria Santa Crucea Kristen Sarisky Robert Schenck Mary Schnitzer William Shull John Skerchek William Slevin Francine Smith Lee Ann Smith Lynnette Smolinski Vincent Snyder Vincent Spitaletto Ellen Stockton Danielle Syontko Monica Szeg Mark Tinitigan Dawn Velasquez Richard Walker Margaret Wroblewski Dominick Wronko Jodi Yunckes Deborah Zielinski Freshmen 111 It’s Half Over Mary Abate Patricia Allen Michele Andrejcik Keith Andrejewski Dennis Arana Jeanne Bayers Nicole Bourgeau Michael Brodziak Patricia Brown Monique Bucholtz Monet Burns Kevin Byrne Tracy Callahan William Campbell Dianne Camporeale Lorraine Caufield Daniel Chisholm ABOVE — Gina Terracciano, Charlene Walters.

Break dancing has become very popular in the past two years. Saint Mary’s boasts two experts, sophomores Hans Romulas and Rich Mancuso. Hans has been break dancing since the summer of 1983. His moves include the windmill floats, the backspring, and the floor rock. In the future he hopes to see his break dance crew, “Shock Rock,” make it big. He’s done a show at Matawan High School and Matawan Avenue. His crew entered a contest in New Brunswick and took fourth place at Cedar Ridge High. He hopes to perform one day at St. Mary’s School. His crew has battled against other groups in Keyport. Rich Mancuso started break dancing in September, 1983 when he caught on by watching others in Perth Am- boy’s streets. His moves in- clude the windmill, turtle, scramble, popping, and the worm. Rich has worked at a disco and has performed on stage. He believes that practic- ing has increased his stamina and balance. He practices at home and in the streets of Perth Amboy. Saint Mary’s congratulates Hans and Rich on their achievements and wishes them luck in competitioni Ann Marie Flynn Ann Marie Fraschille Stephen Frazee Geraldine Galligan Sudeshna Ghosh Phyllis Giglio Lorraine Gildea Mary Gillard Christine Goerke Matthew Gomolka 114 Sophomores Colleen Guikoff Michael Hahn Dina Hartigan Lee Ann Hernandez Luis Herrera John Heyburn Patrick Ignozzi Nancy Kauffmann Brian Kayser Timothy Keevins Avita Kennedy Margaret Kinsella Sandra Korkowski Cheryl Koster Kellie Langan John Letante Brian Linderoth Patricia Loftus John Longo Alvin Lopez Colleen McCarthy Nancy McCue Sophomores 115 Rachel McKenna, Colleen McCarthy, Linda Morenski, June O’Leary, Patricia Radwanski, Jeanne Bayers, Dawne Orszewski, and Veronica Wykpisz enjoy- ing their lunch break.

She takes her ballet and jazz classes three days a week at the Katia Forrest Ballet Studio. Her favorite of the two styles is jazz which is also her best. She started dancing just for amusement. She plans to further this interest in col- lege to learn more about the art of dancing. Although she hasn’t received any awards for her ability, she has displayed her talents in quite a few dance recitals, in the “Passion Play,” in a benefit for Jesus the Lord Church, in the “Nutcracker,” a performance in Spring Lake, and in the United States Tournament of Dance. 118 Sophomores Mark Szymanski David Tail e far John Tanchak Gina Terracciano Angela Titolo Irene Tobin Theresa Toth Michael Urbealis Frank Vattelana Debra Vellanti Peter Wagner Charlene Walters Thomas White William Woodruff Veronica Wykpisz Vincent Yearwood Peter Yuen Tara Zdzienicki Sophomores 119 Nothing Is Going to Stop Us Now Deborah Achenbach Brenda Alai Diane Ambis April Bell Margarita Benites Matthew Blaha William Blanken Alfred Boehler Pamela Bohinski Linda Bravo Michael Brennan Kim Bronne Eileen Brown Kimberly Bruno Regina Bucco Kerry Burke Cynthia Caldon Enjoying their lunch break: David Lamoreaux, Steve Nunes, Cristal Downing, Rosie Murphy, Linda Bravo.

When Mike turned thirteen, he got tired of just gliding along the top of the water. He decided it was time to explore the bottom. He enrolled in a YMCA scuba class. He scuba dives off Belmar, NJ, Florida, and Connecticut with his father and friends. While Mike McDonald has never entered any competitions, he en- joys the sport and its excitement. Mike finds his victory in the thrill of water sports.

Making a transition in our lives, whether it be of friends, schools, our family situation or economic position, often brings a great deal of stress. Confusion, and misunderstanding are obstacles that always seem to accompany these changes. Adapting to new situations often requires us to walk blindly into the unknown, hoping that somehow we will have the strength to meet our challenges. Change within one’s very self must be the most trying of all. Mov- ing from adolescence to adulthood occurs in our high school years. When we leave high school, we enter a world of self-reliance, com- petition and countless decisions. Our four years of high school seem a very short time to become able to meet these new challenges. We have to discover who we are, what are our priorities and what are our goals. We must develop our morals so that we have a “guidebook” to follow as we tread life’s path. In making these decisions we look to others around us for wisdom, knowledge and support. At St. Mary’s, the class of 1985 was bless- ed with such a man. He has been many things to us in many ways. As a teacher, he has been known to go to any extreme in making a point. He has a way of making us look within ourselves to find what we really feel. He, also has shared his feelings, his knowledge and his wisdom with us. He has been a dear friend to us since we arrived at St. Mary’s and we can count on his friendship after we leave. For giving freely of your wisdom, knowledge and support, we, the Class of 1985, dedicate to you, a man of “tank-like” inner strength, our yearbook. Through it, we hope that you will remember us and the times we’ve shared. We will always remember you, Mr. Tice. Steven Andelfinger Valerie Anderson Marybeth Babecki Mary Ballance Kim Bartkowicz Kenneth Benson Robert Bialoblocki Theresa Bien Lisa Binda The Winning Smiles of ’85... 132 Seniors Sound Careers Brian Nash has been playing the guitar for nine years and the bass for over five years. Since 1979, he has been gaining ex- perience playing live in a variety of different bands. His band, ONYX, has been together for under a year, but has already recorded an E.P. and has an album in the planning. What this veteran of the local airwaves and the St. Mary’s Hootenany enjoys most about playing is the recor- ding studio. A perfectionist, Brian likes to have full control over his music. The studio is an outlet for him to shape his music to whatever he wants. We all look forward to big things from Brian and ONYX. Jackie Elkins is lead guitarist and back-up vocalist for “New Feelin.” Jackie and her band play Rock Top 40 and Slow Rock. “New Feelin” is basically a party band. Their repetoire has over thirty hits including five songs Jackie wrote herself. Her toughest work is doubling as band manager. She keeps the band’s younger members work- ing. We are very proud of the musical talent shown by Brian and Jackie and we wish them luck in their musical endeavors. Seniors 133 Karen Charmello Steven Chegus Debbie Clinton 134 Seniors Lynn Paczkowski has a unique talent, she is an excellent diver. Since the age of seven, Lynn has dedicated herself to diving and spends many hours practicing. During the winter, she dives for an A.A.V. Team in Bridgewater. The summer will find her diving for Frog Hollow Swim Club and attending camp at North Carolina State University. Lynn represents St. Mary’s at the county, Eastern, and state competitions. She has cap- tured the Conference Champion- ship three years in a row and broke the conference record this past summer. Miss Paczkowski has also had very impressive finishes in the county meets: 2nd as a freshman, 4th in sophomore year, and 3rd last year. She took 14th place in the State Competition. Lynn enjoys diving and plans to continue diving at college. “I Would Dive for You” Gail Devine Marybeth DiGangi Anthony DiMarzio Margaret D'Onofrio Theodore Douglas Mary Durko Senior 135 Jacqueline Elkins Maureen Fallon Dina Forbes George Francy Karen Gatyas David Graham Above Water We’ve always liked to think that we could walk on water. Now the class of 1985 is convinced! Senior Steve Andelfinger is an expert waterskier. He has been waterski- ing since he was six years old. His father taught him to waterski in South Jersey when he was a boy. Now he has a vast repertoire of stunts: “360’s, Side Slides, Air Spins and Dressing up while ski- ing,” among others. Two years ago, Steve began hydrosliding, which involves at- taching a kind of surfboard to a boat and balancing one’s self upon it. Steve seems proudest about the summer of 1984. In 1984 he and several friends taught themselves to “Pyramid Waterski,” forming a pyramid by standing on each other’s shoulders. When he hits Barnegate Bay this summer, he in- tends to develop his own style — Parachute Waterskiing. Steve cautions people to use ex- treme care in attempting this sport due to its dangerous speed of about fifty miles an hour. He owns three pairs of skis each valued at about two hundred dollars and a boat to power them. We are glad that we have Steve among us to exemplify the winning tradition in this manner. We’ve always had champions in com- petitive team sports; Steve reminds us of the satisfaction one gets from our accomplishments. We thank him for showing us how to “walk on water.” 136 Seniors Howard Harrington Susan Hartney Kimberly Heath Tracy Hehlo Michael Hoeschele Michael Howell Josephine ladevaia Donna Jasnos John Jeffrey Seniors 137 Maryanne Kadubic Deirdre Kelly Lynn Kilcooley Geraldine Kinsella Christine Kirkman Kristine Kloskowski Renee Korabiak John Kulthau David LaBue 138 Seniors “On Your Toes” Marybeth Babecki has been dancing for 14 years, Ballet, Modern Dance, jazz and pantomine are among her repetoire. She practices for 4 hours every day. Her hard work has paid off, however. Marybeth won Miss Dance of New Jersey in 1980 and 1982, and a first place in jazz. She has been a member of various different dance groups, including the American Dance Theatre of New Jersey and a summer with the Joffery Ballet in New York. Along with her dancing, she is also a talented actress and singer. This makes Marybeth a tri- ple threat. She was a member of St. Mary’s Gifted and Talented Pro- gram and has participated in such plays as Chorus Line, Bye, Bye Bir- die, and Carousel. Marybeth plans to go to New Jersey performing arts college and hopes to one day ap- pear on television or the silver screen. Scott Lambertson Teresa Lauletti Barbara Loftus Anthony Malinconico Maureen Martin Frank Martinez Seniors 139 Elizabeth Mastridge John Mazzella Thomas Mierzwiak Zolia Milkowski “Our Good Shepherd” Christian charity is found in many forms within the members of the Class of 1985. Senior Ann Marie Orlowski cares for animals. In her own words, “I love animals a lot — they are my best friends. They show love and can understand feelings. I have always enjoyed being with animals.” Anne Marie has felt this way about animals for a long time. She says that they give her a sense of security and enable her to develop creativity and a strong imagination. Since the age of five, Anne has aspired to become a veterinarian. She plans to care for animals throughout her life. Miss Orlowski has taken in many sick, injured and homeless animals including a wild duck and a heron, plus other varieties of birds, rab- bits, mice and chipmunks. Current- ly, she keeps eight pets: a horse, a duck, a parakeet, a cat, two rabbits and two dogs. That is eight pets, unless you are counting her five or six hundred stuffed animals. Anne Marie keeps her pets in her rather large backyard and a few at her grandparents’ home. She is en- couraged in her efforts by her fami- ly and many of her neighbors whose children are thrilled by her pets. Annemarie concedes that the cost of her animals is most substantial, but was quick to add, “and worth every penny.” In September, Annemarie plans to commute to college so that she can continue to care for her animals. She says that she knows her family will help out and make up for the time she may not be able to give them. We are proud of the dedication which Annemarie has shown in car- ing for her pets. We wish her luck in her pursuit of her career as a veterinarian, and success in the future. 140 Seniors Regina Molloy Patricia Murphy Sandra McGowan Maureen McGuire Brian Nash Colleen Newcombe Robert Noble Barbara Nugent Angela Oberhuber Seniors 141 Kerry O'Brien Theresa O’Brien James A.

Passion Play is a performance of the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is performed seven times during the Lenten season with a final show on Passion Sun- day. The cast and crew of 50-75 high school students not only come from Saint Mary’s, but also from Red Bank Catholic, Keansburg High School and Mater Dei. The students are not just actors and actresses. They work on the stage and make-up crews to insure the success of their friends. Father Vaughan, of St. Ann’s Parish is the director-producer of the Passion Play. He starts the practices in November and works with the students until three weeks before Passion Sunday. The costumes are made by men and women of the parish whenever they’re needed. The students raise approx- imately $5000 for the church through their hard work each year. The Passion Play now in its sixth year has grown in many ways and will continue to grow in the years to come. Let’s extend a hand to all the St. Mary’s students who put in their time to make the show such a success: Joe Byrne, Jim O’Conner, Jim Crossnohere, Jay Mazzella, Tom Dean, Jeff Taylor, Sue Hartney, Mary DiGangi, Gerry Kinsella and Terri Lauletti.

On April 21, 1982 he became an Eagle Scout. An Eagle Scout is the highest and most difficult rank to achieve in the Boy Scouts. Mike is now in the Order of the Arrow and in the National Eagle Scout Association. Since becoming an Eagle Scout, Mike has received the Second Bronze Palm. This means that he has twenty merit awards since becoming an Eagle Scout. He has a total of forty-four merit badges and all twelve skill awards. As an Eagle Scout, Mike is a Junior Assistant Scout Master and runs a troop of fourteen scouts. He spends his time with the troop teaching such scouting skills as camping, hiking, cooking over an open fire tying knots, first aid and many others. Indeed, Mike loves scouting and his achievements have beer well rewarded. 144 Seniors Janice Reilly MaryAnn Reis Lisa Rhoades Maria Rinaldi Mark Roberts John Saba Seniors 14 Let’s hear it for the boy’slll Matt Blaha, Rob Noble.

Few however can top that of Carlos Pineros. Carlos spent his summer in the jungles of Columbia. Carlos is a native of Bogota, Columbia. When a Columbian male turns seventeen, by law, he must report for service in the Columbian army. After completing Junior year at Saint Mary's, Carlos reported for training in Columbia. After being trained, he went on “Campara,” a domestic tour of duty which involv- ed hunting for cultivators of plants which would be refined to make narcotics. He hunted for food and carried an assortment of weapons. Carlos will return to Columbia to be tested to determine whether or not they will require him to re-enter the service. He says that he likes living in the United States, but that he will never get used to the weather.” He plans to study Mechanical Engineering or go into business. He is still not sure where he will settle but he is considering Miami or Los Angeles. Carlos’ story about his summer hasn’t been topped yet; it is doubt- ful that it ever will be. It is difficult for us to imagine ourselves in the scenario which Carlos experienc- ed, but it makes us more aware of the diversity of the world around us and we thank him for sharing his experiences with us. David Skarzynski Judith Slee Teresa Smith Roseann Spitaletto Arnold Springvloed Kurt Stary Seniors 147 148 Seniors Jeffrey Taylor Therese Tice Geralyn Toolan The Boli the Kid Club Traditions are often started by a few individuals and usually quite by accident. One of these was started recently by several members of the Class of 1985. On a warm, sunny day during the summer of 1984, George Petzold, Kevin Quinn and Ken Benson were driven to journey to Long Branch, where they became hungry. They decided to dine at Stuff Yer Face on Ocean Avenue. The atmosphere of the restaurant inspired them to return to it many times. Through their combined efforts the entire Varsity Soccer team and the coach Mr. Duh took many trips to the establish- ment. Many people brought their friends with them and currently a large portion of the student body can be considered regulars of the Stuff Yer Face chain. Currently, several students hold stock in the company and anxiously await the grand opening of the newest loca- tion. The star of the Stuff Yer Face menu is the Stromboli. The Strom- boli is a pizza-dough shell stuffed with tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese and a choice of fillings from pepperoni to chicken breast. The prices are very reasonable and you certainly won’t leave hungry. The ambiance of Stuff Yer Face fits into the St. Mary’s tradition, a winning tradition... Elizabeth Vaning Oavid VanPelt Seniors 149 Arthur Wilke Randall Wilson Marlene Wisniewski Time Well Spent The Hand in Hand program is an organization that tries to help both mentally and physically handi- capped people. Some students in our senior class volunteer to work with Hand in Hand; one of these is Maryanne Reis. Maryanne became involved in Hand in Hand during her freshman year when Mr. Tice men- tioned it. She persuaded Regina Raczkowski to join her. They both have walked in every Hand in Hand Treasure Walk. The Hand in Hand Treasure Walk is a ten kilometer walk-a-thon held at Middlesex County College. All the proceeds go to the Hand in Hand. Maryanne and Regina also work at the annual Hand in Hand Festival, which is a fair for the physically and mentally handicapped. In their first year they were both “friends” — they escorted some of handicapped around the fair. Their other years were spent as a “panic person.” A panic person gives aid to any “friend” or guest that needs it. At the last festival Regina introduced the Hand in Hand to Kerry O’Brien and Kris Kloskowski who also volunteered to become “friends.” The girls enjoy their work in Hand in Hand and feel they have learned as much as they’ve taught. 150 Seniors “Buttons: A 4-H Winner” Kim Heath has been raising rab- bits for nine years. She is a member of East Brunswick 4-H and the American Rabbit Breeders Associa- tion. Participating in shows in Pen- nsylvania and the Middlesex Coun- ty Fair, Kim has pitted her rabbits against others from all over the country. Her efforts have brought home many ribbons and trophies. For each show, she must clean the rabbit’s fur and ears and brush its fur. Kim doesn’t mind spending so much time on her hobby. Her rab- bit, Buttons, is like a member of the family.

Seniors 157 A Friend to All On the night of November 15, 1984, tragedy struck. The communi- ty of St. Mary’s suffered the loss of one of its most beloved students. Anthony DiMarzio died from in- juries sustained in an auto acci- dent. Accompanied by George Pet- zold and John Nemeth, Tony was on his way home from an enjoyable evening of Trivial Pursuit spent at the house of science teacher, Mr. David Duh. Tony DiMarzio was the kind of person that everyone felt they had known all their lives. His ex- uberance and charisma lit up the dullest of days. A member of the Varsity Soccer team and the Cham- pionship Olympics of the Mind team, he did not confine himself to just these. Tony moved through all circles and talked to everyone. He was glad to share himself with all of us. Each of us holds truly dear to our heart some special remembrance of Tony, whether a smile or a good word. Tony DiMarzio will live on in our remembrances of him. 158 Seniors TOP LEFT — Hey now Bill, take another swigg! TOP RIGHT — Teddy Douglas, Rob Noble and Jay Mazzella. ‘‘Future Scholars of St. Mary's.

They are dedicated to striving for excellence in Academics. These students have been conscientious during their four years of high school. Consist- ent grades are necessary to main- tain or improve their class ranks. The majority of these students in the Top 10 have participated in ad- vanced courses to meet challenges as they strive to better themselves and to further their education. The Top 10 students truly deserve recognition for their ac- complishments and they are a vital part of the Winning Tradition of Saint Mary's. } f LEFT — Valedictorian John Radwanski.

Top 10 167 Another Winning Year When we recall our time spent at Saint Mary’s, we find ourselves overwhelmed with a flood of memories. We see the faces and the events which made these four years the happiest years of our lives. Our thoughts pass instantly from our best friends, to our accomplish- ments. While the tears roll down our cheeks, as the smile paints our faces, we feel the pride and satisfaction fo having been a part of Saint Mary’s Winning Tradition. In the past year, we have grown from a variety of experiences. Im- mediately we recall the loss of our beloved friend Anthony and the joy he brought us all. As we continue to reflect, we remember the success of our athletic teams, a long- established tradition at Saint Mary’s. We also feel glad that we can leave behind some of our own traditions. Within the past year our Olympics of the Mind team has grown from obscurity to become national contenders. We hope that this winning tradition will endure. We have initiated the tradition of dining at Stuff Yer Face after a short Wednesday or a lengthy extra-curricular activity, We recall our marriage partners and our prom dates. In 1985 we saw ourselves filling out Financial Aid forms applying to colleges and holding down part-time jobs. The number of students on the Honor Roll was impressive and we remember the awards ceremony and the Honor Society inductions. We also remember crying at the Senior retreat and taking ski trips together. Many of us recall burning the midnight oil to complete term papers or to finish copy for the Yearbook deadlines. As we look at the world in general we remember Bruce Springsteen, the Mets comeback, the 49ers and the Dolphins, President Reagan beginning his second term, the summer-like weekend at the end of February, the Space Shuttle laun- ches becoming routine, the economy finally growing strong. We look back at our time at Saint Mary’s and recall many of the experiences which helped us grow into will rounded individuals. We are grateful for all of the support given to us from our parents, the faculty and each other. We admit the difficulty in leaving behind these people whom we have grown to love but we shall carry our joyful memories with us throughout our lives and we will always remember that we are part of the Saint Mary’s family.

Looking back, the year went by quickly during the months of those dreaded deadlines. But, often page 192 seemed so out of reach. The 1985 SCEPTRE staff worked together to make this yearbook a winner. It was a year of new begin- nings for the staff as they moved their quarters from the nurse’s of- fice to Room 117. An introduction, Student Life Section, Academic section, conclusion and an index were added to the book which grew to 192 pages. This year too a new tradition started with the first an- nual yearbook Christmas Party on December 17. This was a good time for the staff to get together and socialize without any talk of deadlines or meetings. No one on the staff will ever forget waiting for pictures in the mail or facing the final deadline with no copy sheets. Ronald McDonald became our right hand man, and was chosen our mascot. The halls of St. Mary’s took on new dimensions at 7:00 P.M., while we walked through them cautiously and tried to get our lockers open in the dark. Who could ever forget the Mon- day meetings and the deadlines when we rushed around like lunatics to get that one vertical pic- ture and those final articles. Despite my nerves we did get the pages done, at least a few hours early. No one will ever know how many times the Go-Gos tape played on those long days when we worked late. We will always remember our favorite questions, “Could you please think of a cap- tion for this ...’’ or those last minute “closet” shots in Room 115. Of course the yearbook staff could not survive on quadpaks and copy sheets alone, so we depended on junk food. Junk food had to be what got us through those long days. From McDonald’s to Doritos to Dip- sy Doodles, junk food was consum- ed in great quantities by the staff. The staff worked hard and was dedicated to creating an out- standing yearbook which will always be a special part of my senior year at St. Mary’s. I would like to say a special thank-you ... to the administration and faculty for letting us snap those last minute photos and for writing those terrific articles ... to Mr. Twomey, our resi- dent photographer, who helped us out of many binds ... to Don Depew of Normandy Studio who rushed those pictures to us when we were “desperate” ... to Val, who, when everyone stopped clicking, kept on snapping those pictures ... to the entire staff who deserves a round of applause for all their hard work and time ... to Cath, who stuck by me through it all ... to my Mom and Dad for always putting up with my constant discussion of the “year- book” ... and to Mrs. Scordinsky, not only a terrific advisor but a true friend who made everything possi- ble and encouraged the staff and myself to strive to make the 1985 SCEPTRE a winning yearbook that we all can be proud of. 170 Sceptre OPPOSITE PAGE TOP — A rare ahot of Val without her camera.
